Envisex passwords.

[Marc Dijkstra]

Hi all,

Not a server, not a workstation..... so I put it to the UX guru's.

How does one reset the X-term so that it can be setup to talk to a new server? How does one reset the password?

Ta,

MND

That's an interesting typo ..... ;) Envizex maybe .........

OK Passwords : try "secret" ....... it used to be a back door into these systems .....

If that doesn't work you may need to factory default it by power cycling the unit , wait for the 2 beeps and then hold down the following keys :

As to changing it to "talk to a new server" I presume you mean XDMCP connect :

Once you gain access to the xterminals config screen -> allow the xterminal to boot and start an X session ....

goto Xserver-> either change the Mode to Broadcast so you get a list (chooser) of all the systems on your network which you can XDMCP to or if you prefer to go directly to the new host : set mode to XDMCP direct and add the new hosts hostname to the Host(s) filed below the X Display Manager Mode settings.

save , exit and powercycle the xterminal for the changes to take effect.

Hi Marc,

I've got some old documentation about configuring a X-term. If you are interested please send your email adres. The documentation is in Dutch.

Robert-Jan.

Robert, that would be great! We South Africans speak a close cousin of dutch, so no worries.

if you really want to recall your passwd:

remsh xterm cat /dev/ffs1/nonvol | strings

have a look at your passwd on the last line! (in clear text!)

Later,
Bill
